WAAPA Music : Composition : WAAPA Musicians Blog

I’m a second year Music Technology major with a passion for classically derived music. My major influences are Debussy, Satie, Ravel and basically almost anything from the Impressionist era. And much of my latest pieces do their best to display stylistic features from such a time whilst incorporating newer music ideologies, such as electronic and experimental music.
However my style is a consistently evolving one and I find myself exploring new styles and concepts all the time, but as a strings player my heavy bias towards strings writing remains strong, though I also love to write for piano and can adapt to any ensemble setup if required.
I have a passion for film writing and have scored several films and also employ myself as a strings player in the collective 12 piece band The Shallows which you can find on myspace: www.myspace.com /theshallowsau.
I’m easiest to contact via my student email  hayres at our.ecu.edu.au or can be contacted on my mobile 0414 604 057, in regards to any queries or requests.
Peace!
